Waiting to teach...Ready to learn

Being away!

Posted in This week in the Silver lining

Hello everyone:

I looove my teaching job for a lot of reasons. For one, I have flexibility (for the most part) to choose jobs when I can or can't teach. I say for the most part because I am committed to a 6 week teaching period that I'm hoping won't start until the last week of October.... :) ... <>

Anyway, I have taken this priviledge and used it to travel twice now to help my friend Val move to SC. It is a beautiful place. There were some tense moments (who doesn't have these in a move, let-alone a state to state move) and some sad moments (Like saying goodbye :( ...sniffle ...sniffles), But all in all it was a great trip.

I was there a week and a few days and flew back home two weeks ago. Only to catch up and go to an in-state trip to Melbourne for a week! (Business trip).

So...in the midst of coming and going and of staying sane, I am also handling home, few last closing of business details and doing some home improvement jobs, laundry, church, bills, teaching, birthday parties for family, youth and dealing with some family situations. FULL plate!

Anyway, Just wanted to update on why I've been gone so much. I am trying to take jobs at the school as often as possible to make money for a vacation (with my husband this time!), and for of course...Christmas!

Please now join me in a prayer for our week/month:
Things to pray for:
North Korea, Blessings on America, Our leaders, Youth of America, Wisdom for us in the mean time, a safe holiday season, safe trips, blessings on fellow business friend (personal request), wisdom for priorities and for doing a great job in everything we do, my dad (personal request), my friend Veronica and Ryan (worried about them).

God bless everyone,
in Christ's Love,
L

Welcome back Lyssie! I was so excited to hear from you last night. I can't believe you've been back for 2 weeks already! Time flies by!! Well I'm glad you made it back safe and sound.... thank you so much for thinking of us... it made me happy to see our name in your blog... but don't you worry another ounce... why are you worried about us deary? We trust that the Lord is leading us... and yes our troubles are car troubles... but I'm thankful believe it or not for these car troubles. It could be worse... much worse... a car is just a car... and these temporary problems are refining periods for us. We love you and hope to see you soon.

I'm not a homeschooler....Yet! My husband and I have actually been diagnosed as unable have natural children. So I feel like in life, I am just waiting. Waiting to have the children to teach things to, or waiting for the joy of home-schooling, or waiting for an answer on something, or a house, or waiting to learn some new thing God wants to teach us. Either way you look at it, we feel that we are just usually 'waiting'. In the mean time, we just keep our hearts open and our eyes peeled. In due time, we will know and understand. WARNING: THE VIEWS PORTRAYED HERE ARE SOLELY MINE AND DO NOT REFLECT THE MENTALITY OF ALL CHRISTIANS OR ANY ORGANIZATION. I AM HEREBY WARNING YOU THAT AS A HUMAN I CAN MAKE MISTAKES, HOWEVER, I PRAY THAT I DON'T AS MY JOB ON EARTH IS TO BRING GOD'S WORD FORWARD IN LOVE AND I BELIEVE HIS WORD IS NEVER WRONG.
